Earlier this month, the Explorer Edition of Google Glass got its first
major update codenamed the XE7, which introduced a host of
new features including new web browsing capabilities. Digging around
through the update, SlashGear has now found some previously unheard of
features like ‘boutique’ app store, media players and a way to lock the
device among others.

To start with, Google seems to have
addressed the growing privacy concerns with the wearable device with a
way to lock the device. This feature lets users set unique swipe
patterns on the side touchpad to unlock the device. There’s also
evidence of a native app store for the Glass, in a set of codes titled
‘Boutique’. This could be an indication that Google might be readying an
app-store called boutique where it would offer Glass-specific apps.

In addition to the above, there are also some multimedia-related codes
that point at a music player with the traditional play/pause/resume
buttons and also a video player. Finally, there’s also a contact list,
which looks like it can sync all your Gmail contacts, instead of only 10
as was earlier supported.

It’s too early to say what all
features will come to the final release of the update, as many of the
aforementioned features could only be have been added for testing
purposes.
